History channel is airing an episode of Forged in Fire tonight where the blacksmiths harvest old motorcycle parts to make their blades. Has promise. 9p EST.

It aired on Tuesdsy night but I guarantee they'll re-run it next Tuesday leading into their next new episode. They ended up using a pair of older Japanese bikes. The smiths gravitated towards the front discs, chains and springs to harvest the best steel. Pretty cool stuff.
